I arrived in Helsinki on the Viking ferry late in the evening, and this hostel was an incredibly convenient stopover, just five minutes from the port. There's a 24-hour ALEPA grocery store nearby. The surrounding area is safe and quiet, and the reception is open 24/7, which was important to me as a solo traveler. While the hostel may appear simple at first glance, it’s well-equipped and has a cozy, welcoming atmosphere. My room and linens were impeccably clean, and the shared areas were thoughtfully organized and well-maintained.
